Satanic Temple to offer abortion services in New Mexico

[Anonymous]

She raised a man who is dead set on [i]restoring rights to the unborn


I hope you will nominate her and Alito for Sainthood then, or start a Samuel Alito's mom home for unwed mothers.

Meanwhile, those of us who care about our freedoms and those of our daughters and granddaughters will continue to be seriously P*ssed off and applaud any and every effort to subvert this misguided over reach of politicians.

TST Health’s first telehealth clinic will provide medication for safe abortions through the mail for members and for those who wish to perform TST's Abortion Ritual. The goal of this first clinic is to allow our members to have access to safe and legal abortions, no matter where they live or what their financial situation may be.

The Satanic Temple says abortion is a ritual.

“Samuel Alito's Mom's Satanic Abortion Clinic is an online clinic that provides religious medication abortion care. The clinic provides abortion medication via mail to those in New Mexico who wish to perform The Satanic Temple's Religious Abortion Ritual.“

As I said, this is a publicity stunt to troll right-wing policies. It’s satire. It isn’t actual Devil worshipping. If you think it is, you are gullible.

They are raising funds off their abortion ritual.

TST Health's online clinic was launched to protect the bodily autonomy of our members. As part of our commitment to protecting our members' civil rights and ensuring that our religious rituals can be performed without government interference, the clinic represents one of the most important steps we have taken.


While abortion clinics are shutting down everywhere, TST is striking back. Please support TST health to ensure the clinic's success and to help expand operations to other states!

DONATIONS TO THE SATANIC TEMPLE WILL SUPPORT OPERATIONS, AND HELP PROTECT MEMBERS' REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS
Your gift to The Satanic Temple Abortion Clinic Fundraiser will support TST's mission and help protect abortion access.

A Gift to TST Health Will Help Members By:
Providing telehealth abortion services to patients in New Mexico
Providing information and resources, when available, to those outside of New Mexico
Helping those who need assistance to travel to New Mexico when possible

Supporting TST’s operations and efforts

Importantly: you must join the Satanic Temple and be a member to get the abortion medication and perform the Abortion Ritual.

That’s right: only members of the Satanic Temple get the meds. Are you ready to become a Satanist, ladies?

You forgot the wink, wink/nod, nod

So the Satanic Temple is using the IRS religious exemption fraudulently? They are committing fraud against the government?

Sure. Report them.

THE SATANIC TEMPLE DEMANDS FDA GRANT UNRESTRICTED ACCESS TO ABORTION DRUGS
Lawyers for TST sent a letter to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to request that TST be able to access abortifacients without being subjected to the agency’s regulations. Normally, access to Misoprostol (a first-trimester abortifacient) requires a prescription, and Mifepristone(the second drug in the medical abortion regimen) can only be obtained through an approved prescriber and can only be dispensed in accordance with specific guidelines. However, TST has requested that we can directly supply Satanists who wish to undergo an abortion in a religious context with these abortifacients.

The Satanic Temple is using religion but isn’t religious? And abortion to Satanists is a religious ritual, it’s just very crazy imo.

Do you donate to them? How much?

One million dollars!

Satanic Temple cannot currently be evaluated by our Impact & Results methodology because either (A) it is eligible, but we have not yet received data; (B) we have not yet developed an algorithm to estimate its programmatic impact; (C) its programs are not direct services; or (D) it is not heavily reliant on contributions from individual donors.

Well, Charity Navigator has no data on the Satanic Temple.

That’s all right. They’re good people doing the Lord’s work. I trust them.

So the Satanic Temple believes in The Lord and does His work? Where is that information? They don’t believe Satan exists, but use images/statues of Satan and the name of Satan. The use Rituals of Satan. Now you are saying they believe in the Lord, and do his work.

There are plenty of people doing the Lord's work who aren't Christian. Most of the White Hats digging through the rubble in Syria aren't Christian. You don't have to believe in the The Lord to do his work, including providing medical care to women in need.

And unfortunately, people can also believe in the Lord and commit evil either intentionally (clergy pedophilia) or because they have been led astray by false messengers (misogyny).

Signed,

a Christian

Kudos to them but I am concerned their center, their staff, and the patients who visit could face high levels of harassment. I hope there is good security.

Providing accessible medical care to women is important. Glad they are stepping up.

It’s juvenile. This is a graphic from the site. This is part of the reason most people don’t take them seriously. Depicting a passed on Mrs. Alito wishing she could have had an abortion is weird and disrespectful.

It’s intended to be disrespectful.

What did Mrs. Alito do to deserve the disrespect? Exist?

She raised an a-hole like Alito?

Sounds like that is the right name for that place.

A reminder: Catholic attempts to "help" unwed mothers.

Don't see how the Satanists can be worse.

I’m pro-choice, but…

Coercing people to perform satanic rituals (recite two tenets of Satanism per someone’s post above) in exchange for an abortion hardly seems like an improvement. They can talk about not coercing women to get sonograms etc, but they’re still coercing.

All this “wink wink it’s sarcasm” doesn’t alleviate the trauma to a teenager who might still be religious but needs an abortion, and now she has to renounce her religion to get one.

Why couldn’t they just open the door to a doctor on staff?

That's not what the "ritual" is. The "ritual" is the abortion itself, and they're describing it this way to bring it under the protection of the First Amendment.

I can't tell you how much I love this. If you are bothered by the satanic part...search and replace with sunshine and It's the most beautiful plan ever to restore womens rights.

I get the part about bringing it under the first amendment via freedom of religion. But somebody’s post above clearly stated that women have to recite “two tenets of Satanism.” I have no idea what these tenets are, but they sure sound religious in a Satanic way. Also, that goes beyond the procedure itself to what the women believe. And that’s coercion.

1. So cringe. 2. Won’t work, it’s not like I and three weeks of my cronies could start “The Cult of Theft” and use the first amendment to immunize ourselves from prosecution. Tip of the fedora, but they are just trolling.

Pp again. All of which is to say, I love the first amendment concept, but I wish some non-coercive group (is it too much to hope even a liberal church) would do this.

The first two tenets of Satanism (according to their website) are:
I. One should strive to act with compassion and empathy toward all creatures in accordance with reason.
II. The struggle for justice is an ongoing and necessary pursuit that should prevail over laws and institutions.

I assume they're included to make the "ritual" part more arguably religious and I think you'd have to come from a pretty extreme form of Christianity to find the above statements in conflict with your principles.
